What is P-Valley About?
All the drama in the lives of strippers at a Mississippi strip club (The Pynk) is what P-Valley focuses on.

Whether new or old, these pole dancers have to deal with issues at home and at work and that is what P-Valley is all about.
Great attention is also paid to Uncle Clifford, the person that owns The Pynk. They do not accept any particular gender and they are also gay. Clifford loves dressing in a manner that catches the eyes anywhere they go. It is hard for them to keep the doors of Pynk open but they do not back down from the challenge.
The first time that P-Valley was seen on the TV screens was 2020, July 12. Most of the feedback has been good. Some like that the show does not try to deodorize the stripping world but keeps things real. They also like that the show covers tough-to-see topics such as colorism and domestic violence.
